Our Life in Pictures

The next week, we had mountains of snow. It was loads of fun trading school days for sledding, baking and general mischief.

﻿ ﻿﻿﻿ ﻿﻿

By mid February, the joke was on us. Snow upon snow upon snow had fallen, and none of it had melted. There were ice dams, mountainous snow banks, and two way streets were now one way. 7 days of missed school in a 2 1/2 week period. Single digit temps. Swim practices and meets cancelled. A dog confused and general hysteria in the home. Between January 24th and February 24th, storms Juno and Marcus and a few others brought 7.8 feet of snow, and nothing was melting!

It was around this time that we thanked our lucky stars we had planned a trip to Florida! Sunshiney photos to come.

Our dog (and Will’s best buddy) Charlie escaped from the kennel on Monday at 1:30pm. He somehow survived the 4+ feet of snow that’s fallen over the last 3 weeks and the sub-zero temperatures overnight (high of 15 and low of -7) by zig-zagging through traffic and running away from what seemed like everyone in West Roxbury. He was picked up at 10:30am the next morning – exhausted. He was discovered in the bushes and luckily escaped the whole ordeal with just a few paw/nail issues. After spending the day at the vet, he checked out fine and is back at the kennel. Oh yeah, we’re in Florida until Thursday so all of this madness happened while we were 1,500 miles away and totally helpless. We can’t wait to get home to Charlie and give him lots of hugs and love!
